NEW YORK (JTA) - A
survey of the views of Black
Congressmen indicates that
many feel the once strong
alliance of Blacks and Jews
deteriorated during 1984 but
that the alliance still endures, according to the
World Jewish Congress.
One Jewish view of the
condition of those relations
was expressed by Israel
Singer, WJC executive director, who told the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency that
"we have not yet arrived at
the point we would like to be
with the Black community,"
. and he described details of
Jewish-sponsored programs
tp increase understanding
among Blacks about Jews
and Israel.
The report, described as
the first of its kind, was
based on individual interviews conducted over a five-
month period with members
of the Congressional Black
Caucus. The report surveyed
the attitudes of the Black
Congressmen on social and
political issuessaffectiug relationships between the two
groups.
The findings were assessed at the first of a series
of private meetings between
Black and Jewish leaders,
held in the House of Representatives, convened by
Edgar Bronfman, WJC
president, and Rep. Mickey
Leland (D. Tex.), chairman
of the Caucus. Bronfman
said the purpose of the survey and of the meeting ''was
to lay the groundwork for encouraging mutual understanding on the leadership
level and for prompting substantive cooperation between the two communities."
The report is based on interviews with 16 of the 21

President Reagan's Message
For Rosh Hashanah Stresses
U.S., Israel's 'Common Values'
-WASHINGTON (.JTA)'/•—-..
President ^Redgan, ffih his,
Rosh Hashanah message,
said that the Jewish High
Holy Days are a reminder to
Americans of the "common
values" that tie the United
States and Israel together.
The President's -message,
released by the White House
last week, said:
"This is a most sacred
time of the year in the Jewish tradition, and it is also a
time when we are reminded
of the depth of our nation's
inheritance from that tradition. During this period,
members of the Jewish community look both forward
and back in a spirit of repentance. This theme of repentance is one that all Americans can understand
because it is an inextricable
part of America's oldest
traditions. ■•'•■■'■;'
The Jewish High^Holy
Days provide us all with an
opportunity to reflect on our
responsibilities toward G-d
and our fellow man and to
resolve to-do better in the
future in meeting those
responsibilities than we have
done in the past.
This time of year also
reminds us of the close and
enduring relationship
between the United States
and Israel. Our two nations
are joined not by the fragile
strands of temporary interests but rather by the deep
bonds of our common values.
The Jewish High Holy
Days remind us of the permanence and depths of those
values. As the shofar's call
ushers in the New Year, let
us pray that the values of
this season will be reflected
in our own lives and in the
creation of a world at
peace"
